Model of the Week: Jessica Stam

Welcome to our very first installment of Model of the Week. I've written a five question interview that I have conducted with several models to share with you. The questions are both fun and beauty-related and will always stay the same. I can't wait to hear what you think of this new feature!

Here's a little history on the gorgeous Jessica Stam. She was born in Kincardine, Ontario, Canada on April 23rd, 1983 and was discovered in a coffee shop on her way home from an amusement park.

You may recognize her from her countless magazine spreads, appearances in many fashion shows and ads for Marc Jacobs, Anna Sui, Vera Wang, Atsuro Tayama, Cerruti Jeans, Valentino, Miu Miu, Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Holt Renfrew and BCBG. Did you know that Marc Jacobs's highly coveted Stam Bag was inspired by her? She has just signed on to be the face of Armani and Bulgari.

Known for her amazing cat-like blue eyes and long lashes, Jessica also happens to be super sweet, approachable and down-to-earth.

To read her interview that was done backstage before the Luca Luca Show, and to see more runway pictures,

Yikes another anorexic model. The winged picture is downright scary
if you really look at the picture she actually has good muscle tone. She is not anorexic but has an athletic slim body. Yes there are anorexic models but not every successful model is one.
The winged picture is from the Victoria's Secret show and the one thing about them is they dont really have super skinny models- they tend to be more athletic because anorexic models dont look good in bras.
i remember seeing her on the pages of Teen Vogue when she first started out

she looks good...I'm so sick of this skinny model issue. Model's are supposed to be thin to see the drape of the fabric. I really don't think people would like to see samples of clothing on real women sizes.
